2023 edition of the Delhi Auto Expo to be held from 13-18 January 2022 Most participating manufacturers to showcase upcoming EV models Giants like Mahindra and Volkswagen expected to skip this edition
The Indian Auto Expo is all-set to return after a three-year hiatus. Usually, a biennial occurrence, the event was last supposed to happen in 2022. But the on-going global pandemic meant it had to be postponed by a year. The biggest event for automobiles in the country is slated to take place from January 13-18, 2023, in Greater Noida outside New Delhi.
According to the reports coming in, Maruti Suzuki and Hyundai, India’s top two automakers, are aiming to make a big splash at the event. Other manufacturers like MG, Tata, Toyota, Kia, and BYD are also planning to do the same as well with new concept reveals and product launches.
Interestingly, many key automakers in both the passenger vehicle and two-wheeler segments are choosing to opt-out of the show, even though the event is happening after a considerable gap. Experts believe that the high cost of participation and lack of new products from the brands to showcase are key factors to miss the event.
Another major factor is expected to be the show’s location, India Expo Mart in Greater Noida, which is nearly 50 kms away from New Delhi airport. Even for residents of Delhi, it is quite inaccessible due to the sheer distance and lack of adequate public transport connectivity. Pragati Maidan, the erstwhile location where the Auto Expo took place, is in the centre of New Delhi but is currently under reconstruction. Manufacturers may be more interested once it is ready to host again, likely in time for the 2025 event.
Currently the number of automakers set to attend this year’s festival is dreary. Budget car manufacturers like Maruti Suzuki, Hyundai, Kia, Tata Motors and Toyota, along with luxury marques like Lexus, BYD and Volvo are expected to be present at the event.

Maruti Suzuki cars is expected to unveil the YTB, a compact crossover based on the Baleno, at the event. The new model is also likely to receive the 1.0-litre turbo-petrol motor that’s making its comeback to the company’s line-up.
Also, likely to be launched is the 5-door Jimny, one of the most awaited vehicles in India currently.

Sources say that Mahindra cars, Honda cars, Volkswagen cars, Skoda cars, Citroen cars and Nissan cars are expected to not be a part of the Auto Expo. Also, premium automakers like Mercedes-Benz cars, BMW cars, Audi cars, Land Rover cars and Jaguar cars won’t have a presence at this year’s event.

The global pandemic and the following related lockdowns meant that the commercial vehicle segment has faced a couple of hard years. However, with industries like mining, tourism and construction slowly going to normal, there’s an increased demand for trucks and buses. Major players like Ashok Leyland, Volvo Eicher, Tata Motors, and Switch Mobility – an all-electric entrant – are all set to showcase their latest offerings and innovations at the Auto Expo.
